Issue description
Current arx font (Hansa Regular) can sometimes be hard to read.

Suggestion: replace misc/arx.ttf with GNU font probably something like "URW Chancery L".

That font looks very different from the font shipped with arx. The arx font is called Hansa btw. and this is the closest I have found to a license for it: http://www.fontcubes.com/viewfile.php?f=MTk2MC9SRUFETUUyLlRYVA== (from http://www.fontcubes.com/Hansa.font)

Depending on the context, I find the original font is fine. We could change the game to use different font face for the menu, book, conversations, etc...
